Also good lah. Tear down and build up, construction sector huat. Then collect more money from citizens for the new flats also since it's direct Govt sales. Money straight into pocket. Expand HDB is a can of worms. i would say most cant withstand structurally for 99 years. So they will enbloc to tear down and rebuild. option 1 is to relocate resident to new HDB with 99 years lease and 2nd option is to match the remaining lease of their previous flat. 2nd option is gonna make alot of homeowners unhappy and that why option 1 is still the practice now.
